Romaine lettuce to blame for E. coli outbreak in 11 states

As of April 12, 2018, 35 people infected with the outbreak strain of E. coli O157:H7 have been reported from 11 states.

Restaurants and stores are advised not to serve or sell chopped romaine lettuce.

Fresh Food Manufacturing Co., based in Freedom, Pennsylvania, recalled 8,757 pounds of ready-to-eat salad after being notified by their lettuce supplier that it may be contaminated with E. Coli O157:H7, according to the USDA.

The federal response to this outbreak stands in contrast to the E. coli outbreakthis past winter, when investigators at the CDC and the Food and Drug Administration did not make definitive consumer recommendations.

Health officials warned the public to stay away from chopped romaine lettuce.

"Individuals with this infection usually get better within about 5 to 7 days, however some illnesses can be serious or even life-threatening", Dr. Shereef Elnahal, commissioner of the state Department of Health, said in a statement.
